A good real estate attorney will maintain relationships with trustworthy title companies, escrow agents, brokers, etc. so your local attorney's office is always a good place to start looking for ways to stay compliant and save money on your wholesale transactions.

I am looking to develop a relationship with someone who can advise on tax questions and prepare my taxes every year.

Looking for all the knowledge and info from others who are doing what I want to do and build relationships for future business.

Also, although it is rare, once you have an established relationship with a Portfolio Lender you can *sometimes* do them for nothing down.

Even close business relationships can turn sideways where money's involved.

It's an FSBO property and I've been in close contact with the seller for months now, she owns multiple properties in the area and I'd like to say we have a good business relationship at this point...

I should have whacked them $300 for my expertise, but I have a good relationship with them.

I have established relationships doing work for pm companies.

I'd think that putting your money towards a local attorney that you can have a relationship with would be more valuable than Legal Zoom, but I don't know too much about the level of service they provide.

If you are planning to buy OOS with only internet relationships, it can go sour real quickly if you don't vet the pieces of the puzzle well.
